I-Man, you know a lot about bone!

Thanks bud, but it's not really me. If I know anything it's because I tried to follow those who came before me and tried to learn their knowledge. Here on AAPK is a great source. I have learned tons about bone, stag, fake stag and bone, Delrin, etc.

I-Man you said it best!

P.S. keep those pictures of them 'Ol bones a' coming

Beauties Quick. Very nice.
GSPTD, I'm on it, thanks for the compliments. A few more together to peruse:

I like seeing the variety of jigging used by the different brands.

Ahhh, you're too kind, making me blush. I'm humbled you would think my pile is a collection. I think of it as an accumulation without much direction most of the time, but very kind of you to mention. Glad you like seeing them, it's half the fun of accumulating them .

Me too now that you mention it. I was focused on the bone color and not the jigging, but you have a fine point of view and observation.

TMK, thanks for the kind words

Hello all, been gone a while but back now. Been caching up on the threads. I will donate on this one. I picked up a Camillus 4 line bone handle swell end jack a couple months ago. Great snap, and no wobble although the blades have been re-polished. But had to get it just because of the bones.

Wow, where to begin GSPTD. That is some group. Really like the first pic, the S&M, the group liked up. Excellent bones every one. Love seeing a few like that to browse through. Thanks for posting. Love them.

Sweet horn, great bone and is that bone stag or the real thing? Either way three beauties. Love that horn texture, is that straight off the animal or did they jig it? Sweet grip I bet.

Thanks, I-Man I grabbed that S&M right off the bat, and that turned out to be lucky because it was in a sleave with a bunch of Imprerial and Colonial toothpicks and he gave me a group price on the lot that I bought. Well, when I went back later, he priced all the toothpicks at $60-$120 ... for those Imprerial and Colonials and the prices on everything else had shot up ... after looking at some Fleabay listings.
